In an effort to appeal to a more conscious consumer, Real Good Foods Co introduced a Chicken Parmesan pizza crust, which serves as a healthier but equally delicious alternative.
Health conscious pizza crusts aren't a new concept, as offerings such as quinoa or cauliflower bases have been enabling those with dietary restrictions to enjoy the cheese-filled indulgence. What makes Real Good Foods Co's offering so unique, is that the all-natural, antibiotic and hormone-free chicken is baked directly into the crust, making for an exciting flavor profile with every bite.
In addition to its unique taste, this pizza is both gluten and grain-free, with only 4 grams of carbohydrates and 25 grams of protein.
